San Pancho, Nayarit, will once again host one of the most highly anticipated events of the winter season: the 7th Annual Coco Copa, the flagship tournament of the Tierra Tropical Polo Club. This annual gathering, which seamlessly blends sport, hospitality, and philanthropy, has established itself as a must-attend event for residents, visitors, and those who embrace the sophisticated lifestyle synonymous with Riviera Nayarit.
More than just a tournament, the Coco Copa is a celebration with a deep sense of purpose. Its origins trace back to the story of Coco, a bright and charismatic young girl who is a cherished member of the Tierra Tropical family. Her personality—defined by resilience and joy—lent its name to an event that has since become a symbol of unity, solidarity, and hope. Each year, the mission is to raise funds to support children with cleft lip and/or palate, financing life-changing treatments and surgeries.
The seventh edition will take place on Saturday, January 31st, 2026, a date that promises to bring together the local and international communities for an exciting day with a profound human touch. While the tournament officially begins in the afternoon, guests typically arrive around 2:00pm to enjoy a series of mini events before the special dinner scheduled for 7:00pm. The format allows guests to experience polo from a relaxed and elegant perspective, staying true to the essence of Tierra Tropical.
Throughout the day, attendees will witness matches featuring guest teams and players from around the world under the expert guidance of Roberto González Gracida, polo director at Tierra Tropical, who has successfully cultivated a competitive level that remains accessible and enjoyable for families. The tournament’s atmosphere perfectly pairs the adrenaline of the sport with the charm of a San Pancho sunset, where golden light bathes the field and frames a complete sensory experience.
A CURATED EXPERIENCE BEYOND THE FIELD
Beyond the polo matches, the Coco Copa stands out for its curated selection of complementary experiences. The club’s gastronomy serves as a cornerstone of the event, accompanied by Moët & Chandon, signature cocktails, live music, and various activations designed exclusively for this edition.
Among the most significant updates for 2026 is the integration of activities aimed at raising awareness for the tournament’s social cause, alongside a renewed hospitality zone featuring improved vistas and culinary offerings created specifically for the occasion. The awards ceremony will feature exciting surprises, along with auctions featuring renowned brands, further strengthening the social impact that defines the Coco Copa.
The essence of Tierra Tropical is evident in every detail. The club is well-known for its natural hospitality, organic aesthetics, and its ability to create authentic, one-of-a-kind environments. Walking along paths surrounded by lush vegetation, socializing amidst palm trees, and enjoying the sea breeze that drifts in from the coast is all part of the charm that distinguishes not only the tournament but the entire development.
